Key research

Our work is focused on the development of new and sustainable methodologies and their applications to the development of new materials and the synthesis of pharmaceutical and agrochemical targets.

Innovative strategies for the development of sustainable asymmetric catalysis provided unique tools for the construction of complex structures. C-H Activation reactions for better atom efficiency and overall economics and the development of new synthetic methodologies.
